"Pro-Palestinian Solidarity Camp Quickly Rebuilt at Columbia University Despite Mass Arrests"

Columbia University students quickly rebuilt their anti-Israel encampment on a different campus lawn less than 24 hours after over 100 people were arrested at the original site. The protesters, displaying Palestinian flags and blankets, re-established the encampment despite warnings from the university administration and the presence of construction materials on the original lawn. University president Minouche Shafik authorized the NYPD intervention due to concerns about community safety, and had warned participants of potential suspension if they did not leave the site by a specified time.
